Avoid, avoid, avoid!
One of the dirtiest, most horrible hotel experiences ever! Room was filthy, corridor smelled of cigarettes and urine, toilet was dirty and the shower cabin full of mould. Absolutely disgusting and a complete rip off for what they charge. Staff were rude and completely unhelpful. NEVER AGAIN.

AVOID, avoid like the plague!
You could, actually, catch the plague in one of these rooms! This is one of filthiest, most disgusting hotels I have ever seen. And not only that: service was apalling too! I wouldn't know where to start, but I'll just say the hallways smell like cigarettes and urine, the shower is full of mould, the air conditioning covered in what has to be 10 years worth of dirt, the bedroom doors are broken and scratched. Seriously, the place is horrific. Take a look at the photos!

Réservation en urgence suite à une annulation de vol. Emplacement idéal pour découvrir le quartier. Hôtel vétuste. A notre arrivée les matelas étaient sur le trottoir. Personnel rustre et installations surannées.

La indeferencia con el cliente es grande
No respetaron la habitación que había contratado.Cuando contratamos, llamamos al hotel y el personal que nos atendió para chequear la reserva no nos dio información alguna, y al llegar a la noche al hotel nos dijeron que no había habitaciones, le hechó la culpa a expedía y luego asignaron una diferente a la contratada como de favor. No recomiendo mientras no cambien el trato con los clientes.La habitación asignada tenia un ruido infernal por el aire que no se podía manejar de la habitación.

El hotel esta muy birn situado y su localizacion es espectacular, pero la zona ppr ser de patrimonio historico y muy antigua ea un hotel muy sobrio y antiguo nada moderno,el adcensor es super antiguo y las habitaciones igual. Es un buen hotel para el valor que se paga por muchas opciones de localizacion que tiene. No tienen maquina para tarjetas de credito y solicitan siempre mejor cash. Gracias.
